This application is a national stage application (under 35 U.S.C. §371) of PCT/EP2011/002467, filed May 18, 2011, which claims benefit of European application 10006208.2, filed Jun. 15, 2010 which are both incorporated by reference.
The present invention relates to metal complexes which are suitable for use as emitters in organic electroluminescent devices.
The structure of organic electroluminescent devices (OLEDs) in which organic semiconductors are employed as functional materials is described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,539,507, U.S. Pat. No. 5,151,629, EP 0676461 and WO 98/27136. The emitting materials employed here are increasingly organometallic complexes which exhibit phosphorescence instead of fluorescence (M. A. Baldo et al., Appl. Phys. Lett. 1999, 75, 4-6). For quantum-mechanical reasons, an up to four-fold energy and power efficiency is possible using organometallic compounds as phosphorescent emitters. In general, there is still a need for improvement in OLEDs which exhibit triplet emission, in particular with respect to efficiency, operating voltage and lifetime. This applies, in particular, to OLEDs which emit in the relatively short-wave region, i.e. green and in particular blue.
In accordance with the prior art, iridium complexes, in particular, are employed as triplet emitters in phosphorescent OLEDs. It has been possible to achieve an improvement in these OLEDs by employing metal complexes with polypodal ligands or cryptates, causing the complexes to have higher thermal stability, which results in a longer lifetime of the OLEDs (WO 2004/081017, WO 2005/113563, WO 2006/008069). For blue emission, in particular for saturated deep-blue emission, however, these complexes are less suitable, as are the unbridged complexes.
The prior art furthermore discloses iridium complexes which contain imidazophenanthridine derivatives or diimidazoquinazoline derivatives as ligands (WO 2007/095118). These complexes may result in blue phosphorescence on use in organic electroluminescent devices, depending on the precise structure of the ligand. Here too, further improvements with respect to efficiency, operating voltage and lifetime are still desirable. Furthermore, there is also still a need for improvement here with respect to the colour coordinates in order to be able to achieve deep-blue emission.
WO 2010/086089 discloses metal complexes which contain imidazoisoquinoline derivatives as ligands. Good advances in the development of blue triplet emitters have already been achieved using complexes of this type. However, further improvements with respect to efficiency, operating voltage and lifetime are also still desirable here. In particular, there is also still a need for improvement here with respect to the colour coordinates in order to be able to achieve deep-blue emission, and with respect to the yield with which the complexes can be synthesised.
The object of the present invention is therefore the provision of novel metal complexes which are suitable as emitters for use in OLEDs. In particular, the object is to provide emitters which are suitable for blue-phosphorescent OLEDs and which exhibit improved properties with respect to efficiency, operating voltage, lifetime and/or colour coordinates and/or which can be prepared with improved yield.
Surprisingly, it has been found that certain metal chelate complexes described in greater detail below achieve this object and result in improvements in the organic electroluminescent device. Furthermore, these metal complexes are accessible in high yield. The present invention therefore relates to these metal complexes and to organic electroluminescent devices which comprise these complexes.
The invention thus relates to a compound of the formula (1),
M(L)n(L′)m formula (1)
where the compound of the general formula (1) contains a moiety M(L)n of the formula (2):
##STR00001##
where the following applies to the symbols and indices used:
##STR00002##
where the symbols and indices used have the above-mentioned meanings.
In the definition of X, “at least one X which is adjacent to this N” means that this X may be bonded directly to the nitrogen or it is the next-possible position in which an X is present in formula (2). This is explained again in the diagrammatic representation below with reference to two specific ligands:
##STR00003##
In this representation, both the position which is bonded directly to the nitrogen and also the next-possible position in which an X is present is marked. Both positions are regarded as adjacent positions to the nitrogen atom in the sense of the present application.
As defined above for the symbol X, it is essential to the invention that at least one group X stands for N and that a further group X which is adjacent to this nitrogen atom stands for a group CR1, i.e. for a carbon atom which is substituted by one of the groups R1 defined above.
In the complexes of the formula (1), the indices n and m are selected so that the coordination number on the metal M in total, depending on the metal, corresponds to the coordination number which is usual for this metal. For transition metals, this is usually the coordination number 4, 5 or 6, depending on the metal. It is generally known that metal coordination compounds have different coordination numbers, i.e. bind a different number of ligands, depending on the metal and on the oxidation state of the metal. Since the preferred coordination numbers of metals or metal ions in various oxidation states belong to the general expert knowledge of the person skilled in the art in the area of organometallic chemistry or coordination chemistry, it is straightforward for the person skilled in the art to use a suitable number of ligands, depending on the metal and its oxidation state and depending on the precise structure of the ligand L, and thus to select the indices n and m suitably.
An aryl group in the sense of this invention contains 6 to 40 C atoms; a heteroaryl group in the sense of this invention contains 2 to 40 C atoms and at least one heteroatom, with the proviso that the sum of C atoms and heteroatoms is at least 5. The heteroatoms are preferably selected from N, O and/or S. An aryl group or heteroaryl group here is taken to mean either a simple aromatic ring, i.e. benzene, or a simple heteroaromatic ring, for example pyridine, pyrimidine, thiophene, etc., or a condensed aryl or heteroaryl group, for example naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, quinoline, isoquinoline, etc.
An aromatic ring system in the sense of this invention contains 6 to 60 C atoms in the ring system. A heteroaromatic ring system in the sense of this invention contains 1 to 60 C atoms and at least one heteroatom in the ring system, with the proviso that the sum of C atoms and heteroatoms is at least 5. The heteroatoms are preferably selected from N, O and/or S. An aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system in the sense of this invention is intended to be taken to mean a system which does not necessarily contain only aryl or heteroaryl groups, but instead in which, in addition, a plurality of aryl or heteroaryl groups may be interrupted by a non-aromatic unit (preferably less than 10% of the atoms other than H), such as, for example, a C, N or O atom or a carbonyl group. Thus, for example, systems such as 9,9′-spirobifluorene, 9,9-diarylfluorene, triarylamine, diaryl ether, stilbene, etc., are also intended to be taken to be aromatic ring systems in the sense of this invention, as are systems in which two or more aryl groups are interrupted, for example, by a linear or cyclic alkyl group or by a silyl group. Furthermore, systems in which two or more aryl or heteroaryl groups are bonded directly to one another, such as, for example, biphenyl or terphenyl, are likewise intended to be taken to be an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system.
A cyclic alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy group in the sense of this invention is taken to mean a monocyclic, bicyclic or polycyclic group.
For the purposes of the present invention, a C1- to C40-alkyl group, in which, in addition, individual H atoms or CH2 groups may be substituted by the above-mentioned groups, is taken to mean, for example, the radicals methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, cyclopropyl, n-butyl, i-butyl, s-butyl, t-butyl, cyclobutyl, 2-methylbutyl, n-pentyl, s-pentyl, tert-pentyl, 2-pentyl, neopentyl, cyclopentyl, n-hexyl, s-hexyl, tert-hexyl, 2-hexyl, 3-hexyl, neohexyl, cyclohexyl, 1-methylcyclopentyl, 2-methylpentyl, n-heptyl, 2-heptyl, 3-heptyl, 4-heptyl, cycloheptyl, 1-methylcyclohexyl, n-octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, cyclooctyl, 1-bicyclo[2.2.2]octyl, 2-bicyclo[2.2.2]octyl, 2-(2,6-dimethyl)octyl, 3-(3,7-dimethyl)octyl, adamantyl, trifluoromethyl, pentafluoroethyl or 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl. An alkenyl group is taken to mean, for example, ethenyl, propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, cyclopentenyl, hexenyl, cyclohexenyl, heptenyl, cycloheptenyl, octenyl, cyclooctenyl or cyclooctadienyl. An alkynyl group is taken to mean, for example, ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl, pentynyl, hexynyl, heptynyl or octynyl. A C1- to C40-alkoxy group is taken to mean, for example, methoxy, trifluoromethoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy, i-propoxy, n-butoxy, i-butoxy, s-butoxy, t-butoxy or 2-methylbutoxy.
An aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system having 5-60 aromatic ring atoms, which may also in each case be substituted by the radicals R mentioned above and which may be linked to the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system via any desired positions, is taken to mean, for example, groups derived from benzene, naphthalene, anthracene, benzanthracene, phenanthrene, benzophenanthrene, pyrene, chrysene, perylene, fluoranthene, benzofluoranthene, naphthacene, pentacene, benzopyrene, biphenyl, biphenylene, terphenyl, terphenylene, fluorene, spirobifluorene, dihydrophenanthrene, dihydropyrene, tetrahydropyrene, cis- or trans-indenofluorene, cis- or trans-monobenzoindenofluorene, cis- or transdibenzoindenofluorene, truxene, isotruxene, spirotruxene, spiroisotruxene, furan, benzofuran, isobenzofuran, dibenzofuran, thiophene, benzothiophene, isobenzothiophene, dibenzothiophene, pyrrole, indole, isoindole, carbazole, indolocarbazole, indenocarbazole, pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, acridine, phenanthridine, benzo-5,6-quinoline, benzo-6,7-quinoline, benzo-7,8-quinoline, phenothiazine, phenoxazine, pyrazole, indazole, imidazole, benzimidazole, naphthimidazole, phenanthrimidazole, pyridimidazole, pyrazinimidazole, quinoxalinimidazole, oxazole, benzoxazole, naphthoxazole, anthroxazole, phenanthroxazole, isoxazole, 1,2-thiazole, 1,3-thiazole, benzothiazole, pyridazine, benzopyridazine, pyrimidine, benzopyrimidine, quinoxaline, 1,5-diazaanthracene, 2,7-diazapyrene, 2,3-diazapyrene, 1,6-diazapyrene, 1,8-diazapyrene, 4,5-diazapyrene, 4,5,9,10-tetraazaperylene, pyrazine, phenazine, phenoxazine, phenothiazine, fluorubin, naphthyridine, azacarbazole, benzocarboline, phenanthroline, 1,2,3-triazole, 1,2,4-triazole, benzotriazole, 1,2,3-oxadiazole, 1,2,4-oxadiazole, 1,2,5-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,2,3-thiadiazole, 1,2,4-thiadiazole, 1,2,5-thiadiazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole, 1,3,5-triazine, 1,2,4-triazine, 1,2,3-triazine, tetrazole, 1,2,4,5-tetrazine, 1,2,3,4-tetrazine, 1,2,3,5-tetrazine, purine, pteridine, indolizine and benzothiadiazole.
Preference is given to compounds of the formula (1), characterised in that they are uncharged, i.e. are electrically neutral. This is achieved in a simple manner by selecting the charge of the ligands L and L′ in such a way that they compensate for the charge of the complexed metal atom M.
Preference is furthermore given to compounds of the formula (1), characterised in that the sum of the valence electrons around the metal atom is 16 in tetracoordinated complexes and 16 or 18 in pentacoordinated complexes and 18 in hexacoordinated complexes.

If two groups X stand for N, preferred moieties of the formula (2) are the moieties of the following formulae (14) to (27),

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the groups R1 in the formulae (26), (29), (34) and (38) do not both stand for a tertiary alkyl group.
As defined above, a group R al is bonded as substituent adjacent to at least one X which stands for nitrogen. In particular, a group R1 is bonded as substituent adjacent to each X which stands for nitrogen. R1 here, as defined above, is a group selected from CF3, OCF3, branched or cyclic alkyl or alkoxy groups having at least 3 C atoms, trisubstituted silyl groups, aromatic or heteroaromatic ring systems or aralkyl or heteroaralkyl groups. These groups are sterically bulky groups.
If R1 stands for an alkyl group, this alkyl group then preferably has 4 to 10 C atoms. It is furthermore preferably a secondary or tertiary alkyl group in which the secondary or tertiary C atom is either bonded directly to the ligand or is bonded to the ligand via a CH2 group. This alkyl group is particularly preferably selected from the structures of the following formulae (R1-1) to (R1-33), where the linking of these groups to the ligand is in each case also drawn in:

If R1 stands for an alkoxy group, this alkoxy group then preferably has 3 to 10 C atoms. This alkoxy group is preferably selected from the structures of the following formulae (R1-34) to (R1-47), where the linking of these groups to the ligand is in each case also drawn in:

##STR00019##
where Lig denotes the link of the alkyl group to the ligand.
If R1 stands for an aralkyl group, this aralkyl group is then preferably selected from the structures of the following formulae (R1-56) to (R1-69), where the linking of these groups to the ligand is in each case also drawn in:
##STR00020##
##STR00021##
where Lig denotes the link of the aralkyl group to the ligand, and the phenyl groups may each be substituted by one or more radicals R2.
The alkyl, alkoxy, dialkylamino and aralkyl groups may, depending on the precise structure, also have one or more stereocentres. Since the basic structure of the complex may also be a chiral structure, the formation of diastereomers is possible, in particular also if a plurality of such alkyl, alkoxy, dialkylamino and aralkyl groups having stereocentres are present. The complexes according to the invention then include both the mixtures of the various diastereomers or the corresponding racemates and also the individual isolated diastereomers or enantiomers.
If R1 stands for an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system, this aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system then preferably has 5 to 30 aromatic ring atoms, particularly preferably 5 to 24 aromatic ring atoms. This aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system furthermore preferably contains no aryl or heteroaryl groups in which more than two aromatic six-membered rings are condensed directly onto one another. The aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system particularly preferably contains no condensed aryl or heteroaryl groups at all, and it very particularly preferably contains only phenyl groups. The aromatic ring system here is preferably selected from the structures of the following formulae (R1-70) to (R1-84), where the linking of these groups to the ligand is in each case also drawn in:
##STR00022## ##STR00023##
where Lig denotes the link of the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system to the ligand, and the phenyl groups may each be substituted by one or more radicals R2.
The heteroaromatic ring system is furthermore preferably selected from the structures of the following formulae (R1-85) to (R1-112), where the linking of these groups to the ligand is in each case also drawn in:
##STR00024##
##STR00025##
##STR00026##
##STR00027##
where Lig denotes the link of the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system to the ligand, and the aromatic and heteroaromatic groups may each be substituted by one or more radicals R2.
If further radicals R are bonded in the moiety of the formula (2) in addition to the radicals R1, these radicals R are preferably selected on each occurrence, identically or differently, from the group consisting of H, D, F, Br, I, N(R2)2, CN, Si(R2)3, B(OR2)2, C(═O)R2, a straight-chain alkyl group having 1 to 10 C atoms or an alkenyl group having 2 to 10 C atoms or a branched or cyclic alkyl group having 3 to 10 C atoms, each of which may be substituted by one or more radicals R2, where one or more H atoms may be replaced by D or F, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system having 5 to 30 aromatic ring atoms, which may in each case be substituted by one or more radicals R2; two adjacent radical R or R with R1 here may also form a mono- or polycyclic, aliphatic ring system with one another. These radicals R are particularly preferably selected on each occurrence, identically or differently, from the group consisting of H, D, F, N(R2)2, a straight-chain alkyl group having 1 to 6 C atoms or a branched or cyclic alkyl group having 3 to 10 C atoms, where one or more H atoms may be replaced by D or F, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system having 5 to 24 aromatic ring atoms, which may in each case be substituted by one or more radicals R2; two adjacent radicals R or R with R1 here may also form a mono- or polycyclic, aliphatic ring system with one another.
If substituents R which have a +M or −M effect are bonded in the moiety of the formula (2) of the complex according to the invention, these are preferably bonded in the following positions:
If it is a substituent R which has a +M effect, this is preferably bonded to the ring which is bonded to the metal via the carbon in the meta-position to the metal.
If it is a substituent R which has a −M effect, this is preferably bonded to the ring which is bonded to the metal via the carbon in the para-position to the metal.
What substituents have a +M effect and what substituents have a −M effect is known to the person skilled in the art of organic chemistry. Examples of substituents which have a +M effect are F, Cl, Br, I, amines, alkoxy groups, OH, N(R2)2 or thioalkoxy groups. Examples of substituents which have a −M effect are CN, NO2, ketones, aldehydes, phosphine oxide groups, sulfoxide groups or sulfones.

It is furthermore possible for substituent R, which is bonded in the ortho-position to the metal coordination, to represent a coordinating group which is likewise coordinated or bonded to the metal M. Preferred coordinating groups R are aryl or heteroaryl groups, for example phenyl or pyridyl, aryl or alkyl cyanides, aryl or alkyl isocyanides, amines or amides, alcohols or alcoholates, thioalcohols or thioalcoholates, phosphines, phosphites, carbonyl functions, carboxylates, carbamides or aryl- or alkylacetylides. The moieties M(L)n of the following formulae (39) to (44), for example, are accessible here:
##STR00029##
##STR00030##
where the symbols and indices have the same meanings as described above, X1 stands, oidentically or differently on each occurrence, for C or N and W stands, oidentically or differently on each occurrence, for S, O or NR2.
Formulae (39) to (44) show, merely by way of example, how the substituent R can additionally coordinate to the metal. Other groups R which coordinate to the metal, for example also carbenes, are also accessible entirely analogously without further inventive step.
As described above, a bridging unit V which links this ligand L to one or more further ligands L or L′ may also be present instead of one of the radicals R. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a bridging unit V is present instead of one of the radicals R, in particular instead of the radicals R which are in the ortho- or meta-position to the coordinating atom, so that the ligands have a tridentate or polydentate or polypodal character. It is also possible for two such bridging units V to be present. This results in the formation of macrocyclic ligands or in the formation of cryptates.
Preferred structures containing polydentate ligands are the metal complexes of the following formulae (45) to (50),

The bridging unit V here may also have an asymmetrical structure, i.e. the linking of V to L and L′ need not be identical. The bridging unit V can be neutral, singly, doubly or triply negatively charged or singly, doubly or triply positively charged. V is preferably neutral or singly negatively charged or singly positively charged, particularly preferably neutral. The charge of V is preferably selected so that overall a neutral complex forms.

The precise structure and chemical composition of the group V does not have a significant effect on the electronic properties of the complex since the job of this group is essentially to increase the chemical and thermal stability of the complexes by bridging L to one another or to L′.
If V is a trivalent group, i.e. bridges three ligands L to one another or two ligands L to L′ or one ligand L to two ligands L′, V is preferably selected, identically or differently on each occurrence, from the group consisting of B, B(R2)−, B(C(R2)2)3, (R2)B(C(R2)2)3−, B(O)3, (R2) B(O)3−, B(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3, (R2)B(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3−, B(C(R2)2O)3, (R2)B(C(R2)2O)3−, B(OC(R2)2)3, (R2)B(OC(R2)2)3−, C(R2), CO−, CN(R2)2, (R2)C(C(R2)2)3, (R2)C(O)3, (R2)C(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3, (R2)C(C(R2)2O)3, (R2)C(OC(R2)2)3, (R2)C(Si(R2)2)3, (R2)C(Si(R2)2C(R2)2)3, (R2)C(C(R2)2Si(R2)2)3, (R2)C(Si(R2)2Si(R2)2)3, Si(R2), (R2)Si(C(R2)2)3, (R2)Si(O)3, (R2)Si(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3, (R2)Si(OC(R2)2)3, (R2)Si(C(R2)2O)3, (R2)Si(Si(R2)2)3, (R2)Si(Si(R2)2C(R2)2)3, (R2)Si(C(R2)2Si(R2)2)3, (R2)Si(Si(R2)2Si(R2)2)3, N, NO, N(R2)+, N(C(R2)2)3, (R2)N(C(R2)2)3+, N(C═O)3, N(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3, (R2)N(C(R2)2C(R2)2)+, P, P(R2)+, PO, PS, PSe, PTe, P(O)3, PO(O)3, P(OC(R2)2)3, PO(OC(R2)2)3, P(C(R2)2)3, P(R2)(C(R2)2)3+, PO(C(R2)2)3, P(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3, P(R2) (C(R2)2C(R2)2)3+, PO(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3, S+, S(C(R2)2)3+, S(C(R2)2C(R2)2)3+, or a unit of the formula (51), (52), (53) or (54),

The other symbols used have the meanings given above.

Thus, for example, the complexes of the formula (1) according to the invention can be employed as co-matrix for triplet emitters emitting at longer wavelength, for example for green- or red-emitting triplet emitters.
The compounds according to the invention can also be employed in other functions in the electronic device, for example as hole-transport material in a hole-injection or -transport layer, as charge-generation material or as electron-blocking material. The complexes according to the invention can likewise be employed as matrix material for other phosphorescent metal complexes in an emitting layer.
The cathode preferably comprises metals having a low work function, metal alloys or multilayered structures comprising various metals, such as, for example, alkaline-earth metals, alkali metals, main-group metals or lanthanoids (for example Ca, Ba, Mg, Al, In, Mg, Yb, Sm, etc.). Also suitable are alloys comprising an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal and silver, for example an alloy comprising magnesium and silver. In the case of multilayered structures, further metals which have a relatively high work function, such as, for example, Ag, may also be used in addition to the said metals, in which case combinations of the metals, such as, for example, Mg/Ag, Ca/Ag or Ba/Ag, are generally used. It may also be preferred to introduce a thin interlayer of a material having a high dielectric constant between a metallic cathode and the organic semiconductor. Suitable for this purpose are, for example, alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal fluorides, but also the corresponding oxides or carbonates (for example LiF, Li2O, BaF2, MgO, NaF, CsF, Cs2CO3, etc.). Organic alkali-metal complexes, for example Liq (lithium quinolinate), are likewise suitable for this purpose. The layer thickness of this layer is preferably between 0.5 and 5 nm.
The anode preferably comprises materials having a high work function. The anode preferably has a work function of greater than 4.5 eV vs. vacuum. Suitable for this purpose are on the one hand metals having a high redox potential, such as, for example, Ag, Pt or Au. On the other hand, metal/metal oxide electrodes (for example Al/Ni/NiOx, Al/PtOx) may also be preferred. For some applications, at least one of the electrodes must be transparent or partially transparent in order either to facilitate irradiation of the organic material (O-SCs) or the coupling-out of light (OLEDs/PLEDs, O-LASERs). Preferred anode materials here are conductive mixed metal oxides. Particular preference is given to indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO). Preference is furthermore given to conductive, doped organic materials, in particular conductive doped polymers, for example PEDOT, PANI or derivatives of these polymers.
All materials as are used in accordance with the prior art for the layers can generally be used in the further layers, and the person skilled in the art will be able to combine each of these materials with the materials according to the invention in an electronic device without inventive step.
The device is correspondingly structured (depending on the application), provided with contacts and finally hermetically sealed, since the lifetime of such devices is drastically shortened in the presence of water and/or air.
Preference is furthermore given to an organic electroluminescent device, characterised in that one or more layers are applied by means of a sublimation process, in which the materials are vapour-deposited in vacuum sublimation units at an initial pressure of usually less than 10−5 mbar, preferably less than 10−6 mbar. It is also possible for the initial pressure to be even lower or even higher, for example less than 10−7 mbar.
Preference is likewise given to an organic electroluminescent device, characterised in that one or more layers are applied by means of the OVPD (organic vapour phase deposition) process or with the aid of carrier-gas sublimation, in which the materials are applied at a pressure of between 10−5 mbar and 1 bar. A special case of this process is the OVJP (organic vapour jet printing) process, in which the materials are applied directly through a nozzle and thus structured (for example M. S. Arnold et al., Appl. Phys. Lett. 2008, 92, 053301).
Preference is furthermore given to an organic electroluminescent device, characterised in that one or more layers are produced from solution, such as, for example, by spin coating, or by means of any desired printing process, such as, for example, screen printing, flexographic printing, offset printing or nozzle printing, but particularly preferably LITI (light induced thermal imaging, thermal transfer printing) or ink-jet printing. Soluble compounds are necessary for this purpose, which are obtained, for example, through suitable substitution.
The organic electroluminescent device may also be produced as a hybrid system by applying one or more layers from solution and applying one or more other layers by vapour deposition. Thus, for example, it is possible to apply an emitting layer comprising a compound of the formula (1) and a matrix material from solution and to apply a hole-blocking layer and/or an electron-transport layer on top by vacuum vapour deposition.
These processes are generally known to the person skilled in the art and can be applied by him without problems to organic electroluminescent devices comprising compounds of the formula (1) or the preferred embodiments indicated above.
The electronic devices according to the invention, in particular organic electroluminescent devices, are distinguished by the following surprising advantages over the prior art:
These advantages mentioned above are not accompanied by an impairment of the other electronic properties.
The invention is explained in greater detail by the following examples, without wishing to restrict it thereby. The person skilled in the art will be able to produce further electronic devices on the basis of the descriptions without inventive step and will thus be able to carry out the invention throughout the range claimed.
The following syntheses are carried out, unless indicated otherwise, under a protective-gas atmosphere in dried solvents. The metal complexes are additionally handled with exclusion of light. The solvents and reagents can be purchased, for example, from Sigma-ALDRICH or ABCR.

A vigorously stirred mixture of 100 mmol of the 2-(2-(N-alkylamido)phenyl)benzimidazole derivative and 350 mmol of the carboxylic acid chloride is heated under reflux—in the case of carboxylic acid chlorides which boil below 150° C.—or at 150° C. to 180° C.—in the case of carboxylic acid chlorides which boil above 150° C.—for 24 to 100 h until the 2-(2-(N-alkylamido)phenyl)benzimidazole derivative has reacted. If the reaction mixture is too pasty, it is diluted with an inert solvent whose boiling point matches the carboxylic acid chloride used, for example dioxane or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether. After cooling, the reaction mixture is taken up in dioxane (50-200 ml). The reaction mixture is stirred into a mixture of 500 g of ice and 500 ml of aqueous conc. ammonia with vigorous stirring. If the product is produced as a solid, this is filtered off with suction, washed with water and sucked dry. If the product is produced as an oil, this is extracted with three portions of 300 ml of ethyl acetate in each case. The organic phase is separated off, washed with water and evaporated in vacuo. The crude product is taken up in ethyl acetate or dichloromethane, filtered through a short containing aluminium oxide, basic, activity grade 1, or silica gel in order to remove brown impurities. After the product obtained n this way has been recrystallised twice (methanol, ethanol, acetone, dioxane, etc.), it is freed from low-boiling components and brown secondary components by bulb-tube distillation or sublimation (p about 1×10−5 mbar, T about 150-230° C.). Purity according to 1H-NMR typically >99.5%.
A mixture of 25.4 g (100 mmol) of 6-chlorobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazoline, S61, and 200 mmol of the sodium alkoxide is heated under reflux in 200 ml of the corresponding alcohol until the 6-chlorobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazoline has reacted (2-12 h). The alcohol or solvent is distilled off, the solid is taken up in 300 ml of water and washed by stirring. After filtering off with suction, the solid is washed twice with 100 ml of water and once with 30 ml of cold methanol and then dried in vacuo. After the product obtained n this way has been recrystallised twice (ethanol, acetone, dioxane, etc.), it is freed from low-boiling components by bulb-tube distillation or sublimation (p about 1×10−5 mbar, T about 150-230° C.). Purity according to 1H-NMR typically >99.5%.

A solution of 500 mmol of pyridine-3-carboxaldehyde and 550 mmol of 1,2-diaminobenzene in 1000 ml of nitrobenzene is placed in an apparatus consisting of a 2000 ml one-necked flask with stopcock part and attached distillation bridge and stirred at 200° C. for 2 h, during which the water formed distils off. The temperature is then increased to about 215° C., and the nitrobenzene is distilled off in a stream of argon. Towards the end of the distillation, a vacuum of about 100 mbar is applied in order to remove final residues of nitrobenzene, the reaction mixture is then allowed to cool.
If the crude product is produced in glassy form, the glass is comminuted mechanically, oils are mixed directly with 200-400 ml of methanol, and the mixture is heated under reflux, during which the glass or oil dissolves and the product crystallises out. The crude products obtained in this way already have high purity (1H-NMR typically 97-99%). They are optionally recrystallised again and then freed from low-boiling components and non-volatile secondary components by sublimation (p about 1×10−5 mbar, T about 200-250° C.). Purity according to 1H-NMR typically >99.5%.

Procedure analogous to K. T. J. Loones, et al. Tetrahedron 2007, 63, 3818: a vigorously stirred mixture of 100 mmol of the 1-aminoisoquinoline derivative, 37.4 g (110 mmol) of 2-tert-butyl-3-bromo-4-iodopyridine (S27) or 27.9 g (110 mmol) of 2-trifluoromethyl-4-iodo-5-chloropyridine, 35.0 g (250 mmol) of potassium carbonate, 200 g of glass beads (diameter 3 mm), 2.6 g (10 mmol) of triphenylphosphine and 450 mg (2 mmol) of palladium(II) acetate in 500 ml of o-xylene is heated under reflux until the 1-aminoisoquinoline derivative has been consumed (typically 3-30 h). After cooling, the solid is filtered off via a silica-gel bed, rinsed with 1000 ml of THF, and the filtrate is evaporated to dryness. The residue is dissolved in 100 ml of ethyl acetate at the boiling temperature, and 250 ml of n-heptane are slowly added. After cooling, the solid which has crystallised out is filtered off with suction, washed twice with 50 ml of n-heptane each time and dried in vacuo. The solids obtained in this way are freed from low-boiling components and non-volatile secondary components by sublimation (p about 1×10−5 mbar, T about 180-230° C.). Purity according to 1H-NMR typically >99.5%.

A mixture of 10 mmol of trisacetylacetonatoiridium(III) [15635-87-7] and 60 mmol of the ligand L is melted into a 50 ml glass ampoule in vacuo (10−5 mbar). The ampoule is heated at the temperature indicated for the time indicated, during which the molten mixture is stirred with the aid of a magnetic stirrer. After cooling (NOTE: the ampoules are usually under pressure!), the ampoule is opened, the sinter cake is stirred for 3 h with 100 g of glass beads (diameter 3 mm) in 100 ml of the suspension medium indicated and mechanically digested at the same time. The fine suspension is decanted off from the glass beads, the solid is filtered off with suction and dried in vacuo. The dry solid is placed on an aluminium oxide bed (aluminium oxide, basic activity grade 1) with a depth of 10 cm in a hot extractor and then extracted with the extraction medium indicated (initially introduced amount about 500 ml). When the extraction is complete, the extraction medium is evaporated to about 100 ml in vacuo. Metal complexes which have excessively good solubility in the extraction medium are brought to crystallisation by dropwise addition of 200 ml of methanol. The solid of the suspensions obtained in this way is filtered off with suction, washed once with about 50 ml of methanol and dried. After drying, the purity of the metal complex is determined by means of NMR and/or HPLC. If the purity is below 99.5%, the hot-extraction step is repeated, if a purity of 99.5-99.9% has been reached, the metal complex is heated or sublimed. The heating is carried out in the temperature range 200-300° C. in a high vacuum (p about 10−6 mbar). The sublimation is carried out in the temperature range from about 320 to about 400° C. in a high vacuum (p about 10−6 mbar), where the sublimation is preferably carried out in the form of a fractional sublimation. In the case of ligands in point group C1, the derived metal complexes are obtained as diastereomer mixture.
Procedure analogous to variant A, using 10 mmol of tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)iridium instead of 10 mmol of trisacetylacetonatoiridium(III) [15635-87-7].

A mixture of 10 mmol of sodium bisacetylacetonatodichloroiridate(III) [770720-50-8] and 24 mmol of ligand L is melted into a 50 ml glass ampoule in vacuo (10−3 mbar). The ampoule is heated at the temperature indicated for the time indicated, during which the molten mixture is stirred with the aid of a magnetic stirrer. After cooling—NOTE: the ampoules are usually under pressure!—the ampoule is opened, the sinter cake is stirred for 3 h with 100 g of glass beads (diameter 3 mm) in 100 ml of the suspension medium indicated and mechanically digested at the same time. The fine suspension is decanted off from the glass beads, the solid is filtered off with suction and dried in vacuo.
The crude chloro dimer of the formula [Ir(L)2Cl]2 obtained in this way is suspended in a mixture of 75 ml of 2-ethoxyethanol and 25 ml of water, 13 mmol of the co-ligand CL or the co-ligand compound CL and 15 mmol of sodium carbonate are added. After 20 h under reflux, a further 75 ml of water are added dropwise, aft er cooling the solid is filtered off with suction, washed three times with 50 ml of water each time and three times with 50 ml of methanol each time and dried in vacuo. The dry solid is placed on an aluminium oxide bed (aluminium oxide, basic activity grade 1) with a depth of 10 cm in a hot extractor and then extracted with the extraction medium indicated (initially introduced amount about 500 ml). When the extraction is complete, the extraction medium is evaporated to about 100 ml in vacuo. Metal complexes which have excessively good solubility in the extraction medium are brought to crystallisation by dropwise addition of 200 ml of methanol. The solid of the suspensions obtained in this way is filtered off with suction, washed once with about 50 ml of methanol and dried. After drying, the purity of the metal complex is determined by means of NMR and/or HPLC. If the purity is below 99.5%, the hot-extraction step is repeated, if a purity of 99.5-99.9% has been reached, the metal complex is heated or sublimed. The heating is carried out in the temperature range 200-300° C. in a high vacuum (p about 10−6 mbar). The sublimation is carried out in the temperature range from about 300 to about 390° C. in a high vacuum (p about 10−6 mbar), where the sublimation is preferably carried out in the form of a fractional sublimation.

The crude chloro dimer of the formula [Ir(L)2Cl]2 is reacted further in accordance with WO 2007/065523, Example 5, in the presence of 80 mmol of co-ligand CL and 75 mmol of N,N-dimethylglycine in 1000 ml of a dioxane/water mixture (1:1, vv). The solid obtained in this way is placed on an aluminium oxide bed (aluminium oxide, basic activity grade 1) with a depth of 10 cm in a hot extractor and then extracted with the extraction medium indicated (initially introduced amount about 500 ml). When the extraction is complete, the extraction medium is evaporated to about 100 ml in vacuo.

The solid obtained in this way is taken up in 100 ml of ethanol, 30 mmol of co-ligand CL are added, and the mixture is then heated under reflux for 30 h. After cooling, the solid is filtered off with suction, washed twice with 50 ml of ethanol each time and dried in vacuo. The solid obtained in this way is placed on an aluminium oxide bed (aluminium oxide, basic activity grade 1) with a depth of 10 cm in a hot extractor and then extracted with the extraction medium indicated (initially introduced amount about 500 ml). When the extraction is complete, the extraction medium is evaporated to about 100 ml in vacuo. Metal complexes which have excessively good solubility in the extraction medium are brought to crystallisation by dropwise addition of 200 ml of methanol. The solid of the suspensions obtained in this way is filtered off with suction, washed once with about 50 ml of methanol and dried. After drying, the purity of the metal complex is determined by means of NMR and/or HPLC. If the purity is below 99.5%, the hot-extraction step is repeated, if a purity of 99.5-99.9% has been reached, the metal complex is heated or sublimed. The heating is carried out in the temperature range 200-300° C. in a high vacuum (p about 10−6 mbar). The sublimation is carried out in the temperature range from about 300 to about 390° C. in a high vacuum (p about 10−6 mbar), where the sublimation is preferably carried out in the form of a fractional sublimation. In the case of ionic metal complexes, aluminium oxide is replaced by Celite in the hot-extraction step.

OLEDs according to the invention and OLEDs in accordance with the prior art are produced by a general process in accordance with WO 2004/058911, which is adapted to the circumstances described here (layer-thickness variation, materials used).
The results for various OLEDs are presented in Examples 1 to 146 below (see Tables 1 and 2). Glass plates coated with structured ITO (indium tin oxide) in a thickness of 150 nm are coated with 20 nm of PEDOT (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxy-2,5-thiophene), applied by spin coating from water; purchased from H. C. Starck, Goslar, Germany) for improved processing. These coated glass plates form the substrates to which the OLEDs are applied. The OLEDs have in principle the following layer structure: substrate/optional hole-injection layer (HIL)/hole-transport layer (HTL)/electron-blocking layer (EBL)/emission layer (EML)/optional hole-blocking layer (HBL)/electron-transport layer (ETL)/optional electron-injection layer (EIL) and finally a cathode. The cathode is formed by an aluminium layer with a thickness of 100 nm
Firstly, vacuum-processed OLEDs are described. For this purpose, all materials are applied by thermal vapour deposition in a vacuum chamber. The emission layer here always consists of at least one matrix material (host material) and an emitting dopant (emitter), which is admixed with the matrix material or matrix materials in a certain proportion by volume by coevaporation. An expression such as M3:M2:Ir(L1)3 (55%:35%:10%) here means that material M3 is present in the layer in a proportion by volume of 55%, M2 is present in the layer in a proportion of 35% and Ir(L1)3 is present in the layer in a proportion of 10%. Analogously, the electron-transport layer may also consist of a mixture of two materials. The precise structure of the OLEDs is shown in Table 1. The materials used for the production of the OLEDs are shown in Table 3.
The OLEDs are characterised by standard methods. For this purpose, the electroluminescence spectra, the current efficiency (measured in cd/A) and the voltage (measured at 1000 cd/m2 in V) are determined from current/voltage/luminance characteristic lines (IUL characteristic lines). For selected experiments, the lifetime is determined. The lifetime is defined as the time after which the luminous density has dropped to a certain proportion from a certain initial luminous density. The expression LD50 means that the lifetime given is the time at which the luminous density has dropped to 50% of the initial luminous density, i.e. from, for example, 4000 cd/m2 to 2000 cd/m2. Depending on the emission colour, different initial luminances were selected. The values for the lifetime can be converted to a figure for other initial luminous densities with the aid of conversion formulae known to the person skilled in the art. The lifetime for an initial luminous density of 1000 cd/m2 is a usual figure here.
Use of Compounds According to the Invention as Emitter Materials in Phosphorescent OLEDs
The compounds according to the invention can be employed, inter alia, as phosphorescent emitter materials in the emission layer in OLEDs. The metal complexes with the central atoms Ir and Pt are used here. The compounds Ir(ref)3 is used as comparison in accordance with the prior art. The results for the OLEDs are summarised in Table 2. In the case of the OLEDs, it is apparent here that the materials according to the invention result in efficient blue- and green-emitting OLEDs.

Materials according to the invention can also be used from solution, where they result in significantly simpler OLEDs compared with vacuum-processed OLEDs with nevertheless good properties. The production of components of this type is based on the production of polymeric light-emitting diodes (PLEDs), which has already been described many times in the literature (for example in WO 2004/037887). The structure is composed of substrate/ITO/PEDOT (80 nm)/interlayer/emission layer (80 nm)/cathode. The interlayer used serves for hole injection; in this case, HIL-012 from Merck is used. In the present case, the emitters according to the invention for the emission layer are dissolved in toluene along with the matrices. The typical solids content of such solutions is between 16 and 25 g/l if, as here, the typical layer thickness of 80 nm for a device is to be achieved by means of spin coating. The emission layer is applied by spin coating in an inert-gas atmosphere, in the present case argon, and dried by heating at 120° C. for 10 min. Finally, a cathode comprising barium and aluminium is applied by vacuum vapour deposition. The layers HBL and ETL used in the above-mentioned examples can also be applied by vapour deposition between EML and cathode, the interlayer may also be replaced by one or more layers which merely have to satisfy the condition of not being detached again by the subsequent processing step of EML deposition from solution. The solution-processed devices are characterised by standard methods in the matrices PS (polystyrene):M6:M1:Ir(LX)3 (26%:14%:42%:20%), the OLED examples given have not yet been optimised. Table 4 summarises the data obtained. In the case of the processed OLEDs, its is apparent here that the materials according to the invention result in efficient blue-emitting OLEDs.
